The capital stock of the Parent Company is divided into two classes: Class A shares (quota value SEK 5.00) and Class B shares (quota value SEK 5.00). Both classes have the same rights of participation in the net assets and earnings. Class A shares, however, are entitled to one vote per share while Class B shares are entitled to one tenth of one vote per share. The Annual General Meeting (AGM) 2024 resolved to issue 4,100,000 Class C shares for the Long-Term Variable Compensation Program LTV I 2023 for Ericsson’s executive team and other executives. In accordance with an authorization from the AGM, the Board of Directors resolved to repurchase the new issued shares, which were subsequently converted into Class B shares. The quotient value of the repurchased shares was SEK 5.00, totaling SEK 20.5 million, representing 0.1% of capital stock. The acquisition cost was SEK 20.7 million. At December 31, 2024, the total number of treasury shares was 15,579,561 (14,009,306 in 2023 and 4,009,306 in 2022) Class B shares. Number of shares
